Everything was absolutely fantastic! The paragliding flight was an incredible experience and perfectly organized. I’d especially like to give a shout-out to our instructor, Rolf—an absolutely amazing professional who was very calm and knowledgeable, yet also incredibly friendly. I felt safe the entire time and was able to just enjoy the flight. I’d do it again in a heartbeat! The Appenzell region is also simply beautiful and absolutely breathtaking—a true natural gem.

It was a truly memorable experience. A big thank you to pilot Fritz Fankhauser for his expert guidance and care (and also to co-pilot Peter Gempeler). He shared a wealth of knowledge and experience. The flight went smoothly and was very impressive. Fritz was completely attentive to my wishes (and how I was feeling during the flight).
I highly recommend both pilots.
Best regards,
Gustav Thoma

It was awesome. We had such a beautiful day. The flight was way easier than I expected. Patrick also answered a lot of my questions, and it was really interesting to learn all that. I highly recommend it.

I booked a tandem paragliding flight on very short notice, and everything went perfectly. It was my first time, even though I’m afraid of heights. The pilot did such a great job that I wasn’t scared at all. I was able to enjoy the flight to the fullest and would book another one in a heartbeat.
